Hey, do y’all remember how Tencent said they were developing faceID AI to identify people in riots, and then they suddenly created an AI art generator to turn your selfies into anime?

Do y’all remember that time that someone discovered facial recognition cameras couldn’t see through Juggalo makeup, then Facebook had a fun “see what you’d look like with Juggalo makeup” thing, and then facial recognition cameras could suddenly see through Juggalo makeup?

Do y’all remember how, on Twitter, Elon started a tirade against artists who ask for credit when their art is reposted, and he suddenly he created one of the first big art AI programs?

Do y’all remember how AI destroyed the field of translation, despite the inferiority of the machine translations, because people didn’t care about the quality of the translations? They just wanted it done for free?

Do you know how companies will see a lot of money going into a New Tech Thing (like, say, AI art apps) and will jump to try and implement that New Tech Thing into their tech? For example, how it felt like every big company and celebrity had an NFT to sell?

Just wondering.

TRUMP ORG FOUND GUILTY ON ALL COUNTS

TRUMP ORG FOUND GUILTY ON ALL COUNTS

CONSPIRACY: GUILTY

TAX FRAUD (X3): GUILTY

FALSIFYING BUSINESS RECORDS (X4): GUILTY

Now, the REAL fun begins.

NYAG Letita James is going to use these 8 FELONY counts to argue in her $250 million lawsuit against the Trump Org that the trump org committed *checks notes* tax fraud and *checks again* falsified their business records, with the goal if PROHIBITING Donald trump from operating a business in the state of New York.

This lawsuit, if she wins, would effectively DESTROY the trump org. And she now has her STRONGEST evidence yet.
